Digital Architecture Company that provides two online solutions Acalog- an electronic catalog system Curriculog- an online curriculum management system

What is Acalog? KSU began using Digital Architecture’s Acalog in 2008. This solution allowed KSU to move from producing physical undergraduate and graduate catalogs to publishing the catalogs electronically on the web. Acalog is used by hundreds of colleges and universities. Acalog allows: Easy clicks to access catalog information Formatted and searchable sections of the catalogs Ability to make real-time corrections to the catalogs Interactive options that enable social media integration, including personal catalog portfolios and mobile device versions of the catalogs accessible on smart phones.

What is Curriculog? A newly developed curriculum management online solution. Curriculog allows: Platform for adding, modifying, and terminating/deactivating curriculum proposals Online curriculum proposal forms customized for KSU Ability to set up review processes for each curricula action type including rule-based routing customized for KSU Setting up curriculum meetings and agendas online Tracking edits to proposals online from curriculum committees/administrators Making curriculum decisions online and handle electronic signatures Dashboards allowing users to view active proposals, keep track of own proposals, and those that need watching Configurable fields enable providing KSU/USG curricular terminology Ability to pull impact, bottleneck, and proposal status reports that can be exported.

KSU’s Benefits of Using Acalog and Curriculog Together Acalog and Curriculog integration allows: Users completing a curriculum proposal to automatically pull relevant proposal form fields from acalog into the online proposals KSU’s Campus Curriculog/Acalog Administrator to automatically push curriculum updates to Acalog and Banner once final approvals to proposals have occurred in Curriculog.
